Ms. Aung San Suu Kyi, incarcerated for more than 10 years since 1989, and following in the footsteps of Mahatma Gandhi (India) and Nelson Mandela (South Africa), is leading one of the great non-violent political struggles of our time in Myanmar in South East Asia. Her role is an example for the terrorists who unlease violence to achieve their political aim.
One step forward, two steps back. That sums up the approach of the ruling military junta in Myanmar. The opposition National League for Democracy (NLD) leader Ms. Suu Kyi, is an icon of democracy on the world stage. The NLD swept the last general elections under the junta rule in 1990 which were promptly annulled by the junta. Senior General Than Shwe and his military colleagues continue to rule Myanmar with an iron hand. They have shown scant regard for international public opinion, or even the ‘friendly counsel’ of South East Asian neighbours.

The recent Military Rulers have become eloquent and harder as the present world of Democratic Nationalists is also dependant on Foriegn Electronic Media . MS Aung San Suu Ki and her party has experienced more critisism by Junta and all the while Burma itself is losing ground .One day if both the generals children and the leaders children have to sit down together infront of a new colonisers table or face a world body which explains that in the differences both weakened thier own nation to control itself and how will they feel contracting away the economy or life. MS Aung Saan Suu Ki has the moral right to offer herself and party to Junta for sharing Political Controls of Burma and when the Junta is still Shy they will obviously face issues beyond thier eloquent selves.
